New From River Leaf Models – The OGR World Headquarters

Another home run! Very nice, and suited to be a bank, post office or even the local courthouse. Awesome!

Very nice building Andre!!

HOW ABOUT THAT! The OGR World Headquarters and Raw Nerve Center...on O gauge layouts all over the world!

Very nice, Andre!

It's a beauty, Andre.

Andre,

Now that's is a very impressive structure, another home run

Alex

Very nice Andre, a great building that can fill a lot of needs.

   Bill T.

Hmmmm.  That's bigger than I remember it even in 1/48 scale.

Another nice building Andre.

Andre,

That is a very nice looking building. You have done a great job with the building kits you have been producing.

Alan Graziano

Beautiful building Andre. There are a host of businesses that would look good in that building. You should offer a variety of signs so customers can have a selection. 

Andre this is a very nice building. What is the cost for a custom sign? We have another use in mind.

Thanks

OH GOODIE!!  Here's my chance to touch the raw nerves of OGR......and get away with it!!

Andre, ol' buddy, they just keep getting better and better!!

Time to do some 'urban renewal', maybe.  Gotta find a spot for this one.  It sez "Police Headquarters" to me....a couple of globe light sconces on either side of the doorway, some bars across a couple of back/side windows, liberal sprinkling of our heroes-in-blue, parking lot with a couple police cars.........a donut shop next door!!!

Very, very cool!!!!

Fantastic Andre!!  This makes several World Headquarters Buildings over the recent years...seems OGR can't decide which building to designate as their home!!..LOL!!  Seriously thought, Andre, this is a really nice structure with a distinct architecture....I really like the cut stone look!  Now, the OGR crew has to begin the move from the skyscraper downtown to this new structure....uhmm....I want the top floor...

Alan

Needs some add on floors this is World Headquarters and still growing.

Jack 

Simply fantastic Andre!!

Andre,

Nice work!

Dave

Marvelous Andre

I don't know, I have never seen the OGR headquarters and was picturing a 55 story office building. This looks kinda modest for OGR...kidding, of course. This is beautiful. 

That is cool, thanks for posting...

And when the Comissioner turns on the Bat Light on the roof , Ed Boyle comes to the rescue !

Brad

Thank you guys for the nice comments.

Andre.

Seems a little small to hold all of those brilliant and insightfully witty OGR staff folks.  It is a very nice structure. You are kicking it, keep it up. I got the WW kit, it looks like it is going to be fun to assemble it.

I used to drive through Poland on my way to Canton when our older daughter was in college there.  Once I drove back to see the real world headquarters.  It is amazing how little space these great minds need to put out such an excellent publication, forum, and products!

Andre,

This building is quite worthy as a world headquarters!  Another wonderful job!

I'm seeing it as a large newspaper office and printing. Great design.

Andre....

Was showing this to a fellow hobbyist...a question arose...

Re above photo...the first floor windows on the right side (as you view it)...are they aligned with the second floor windows? 

The first and second floor windows appear aligned on the left side, but he wondered if there was some photo distortion that made them seem otherwise on the right side????

Not a biggie...just curious.

Per a thread comment above....do you do custom signs for this building?  If so, .....$$$???

KD

 ANDRE ANDRE ANDRE!!!!!

KD,

Good eye.

Yes, this is the mock up, the first cut and it is made to see all the details and pros and cons.

The drawing after that were modified to be aligned. 

Different sign will be available with not charge.

Custom sign that fit into the original sign will be free of charge as well.

Andre.

Wow that is an awesome building. Great architecture.  

Ed

It looks like an old police district building in South Philly.  Andre maybe a police station for the building.

I've also visited the OGR world headquarters several years ago. Nice building Andre, it would even make a nice bank. O-G-R your savings insured?

Don Kane Jr

Ok guys!

here is some signs ideas.

Awesome job. I'm going to have to get one. I always visualized the OGR World Headquarters as being more on the order of 95-100 stories. I can accept your very tasteful selective compression of this beautiful structure.

Beautiful!

Peter

Great design....congrats!

Well, then!!.....

See??  This truly is a MODEL OF SUCCESS!!  Unlike the bloated beltway bureaucracy of the D.C., great and awesome things can be accomplished with far more modest resources...and digs!   Kudos to 'model' management, OGR!!

Of course, the cubicles therein could be discarded phone booths, too!!!

I had the same feelings the first time I saw Weaver's now-abandoned digs....'Whoa!  You're doing all you're doing in a facility THIS modest???!!!'

Andre....  

Re the window re-alignment.  Thanks for the reply!  'Beta Tests' always are worth the effort, eh what?  Love your sign suggestions.  I'd vote for POLICE DEPARTMENT, too...but your call.  (I'll have to find some interior images to post behind those BIG windows.)

KD

The sign can be customize to your needs if fit into the actual size for no extra charge.

I was at the OGR Office when it was in nazareth pa, was smaller than I expected it to be.
